It is laugh out loud funny, while also managing to somehow be heartfelt despite its necessarily vulgar subject matter. will not even try to describe consists of standing at a men's room urinal between professional woodmen [male porn stars] Alex Sanders and Dave Hardman. Yes, yes, I know all about his weaknesses - the digressions, the rampant footnote abuse, the flaunting of his amazing erudition, the mess that is 'Infinite Jest'.
"Up, Simba" is an encomium to John McCain's ability to appeal to Young Voters (presumably of all political stripes(2).) Als we je account op een ander apparaat herkennen, hoef je niet opnieuw de keuze te maken. "Up, Simba" is an encomium to John McCain's ability to appeal to Young Voters (presumably of all political stripes(2).) I don't use tour de force that often when it comes to books, but this was precisely that.I've long been told by so many to read Infinite Jest, but the problem is, an equal amount of people have said it's not worth the bother. Something I like about DFW and something I find rather young and self-indulgent about him. I can't comment on his fiction, but this collection of essays was simply A+ material. Op bol.com vind je alle boeken van David Foster Wallace. "David Foster Wallace (1962-2008) is de auteur van enkele bijzondere verhalenbundels, vele dwarse essays en van een paar opvallende romans.Dit is wateris verreweg het kleinste, maar waarschijnlijk ook het meest gelezen werk van Foster Wallace. Published For a book so long, I'm not ready to take the risk. {"pdpAnalyticsObj":{"pageInfo":{"pageType":"PDP","country":"NL","shoppingChannelContextTypeAndDeviceType":"www.bol.com,DESKTOP","canonicalUrl":"https://www.bol.com/nl/p/consider-the-lobster/9200000005781871/"},"product":{"productId":"9200000005781871","title":"Consider The Lobster","category":"Boeken","brand":"","brick":"10000926","seller":"0_","orderable":true,"price":"4.49","categoryNumbersFlattened":["8299","40358","40548"]}}} DFW wrote adrenaline-fueled, almost manic, hyper-insightful, exuberant prose mixed with street slang and professorial footnotes. The footnotes are easy to access, and also to leave and comYes: I read the Lobster on Kindle. (Part of this feeling was no doubt duI must confess that I am not one of the cult of DFW followers that wallow in his genius ramblings; I honestly appreciated, though did not love, his (universally acknowledged) masterpiece: "Infinite Jest"; despite its raw humor, it rambled and meandered WAY too much for me to get a feel for his true storytelling talent. That feeling that your sweetie is AMAZING, PERFECT, and you have no idea how you ever lived without them? He had a way of making you see very mundane things in an entirely new light. In "Authority and American Usage" DFW praises Garner for bridging the gap between the Prescriptionist and the Descriptionist usage experts. “Consider the Lobster” by David Foster Wallace is a controversial article to whether or not it is humane to drop a live lobster in a pot of boiling water. Way bigger than mine. His life was an information hunt, collecting hows and whys. Deep down, do I even really want to be a good person, or do I only want to seem like a good person so that people (including myself) will approve of me? Is there a difference? Who is almost frighteningly smart.Outstanding. He wanted to write "stuff about what it feels like to live. I loved DFW's writing, especially the last piece where endnotes were boxed-in and merged with the body of essay itself; but asides from a chapter or two, a big bulk of the content was socio-political issues that hardly matter to a non-American.Do you know that feeling of falling in love so hard and so fast that your head spins?
Within just a few paragraphs, however, the sheer and utter brilliance of this fascinating and yet also erudite and intellectual examination of the porn industry left me with little doubt that DFW's reputation as one of the smartest and funniest writers of my lifetime is well-deserved.This felt like eating a piece of dessert that was left out for too long yet still managed to taste decent. The rest too were also mighty fine. Now I know he had a pretty big brain. The erudition, humility, self-consciousness, and truth-seeking are all on fine display here, as is the extremely personal nature of his prose.
I don't have anything to say that hasn't already been said. Do lobsters feel pain? I know all this, and I don't care. Op voorraad. by Little, Brown and Company No one could match him for wit and manipulation of language as this book attests. The word “essays” may bring up memories of tedious composition classes, but today’s collections are anything but dull. DFW is/was amazing, brilliant, and it is so devastating that he won't spend the next several decades casting his genius out to us in small sips, book by book by book. Suffice it to say that the urge to look over/down at their penises is powerful and the motives behind this urge so complex as to cause anuresis (which in turn ups the trauma)."
